He was born in Sudbury, Suffolk, and received his artistic training at an early age, probably from the painters Francis Wynantz, Charles Jervas, and Francis Hayman, all of whom were in Suffolk in the 1730s. In about 1740 Gainsborough went to study in London with the noted French draughtsman and engraver Hubert-Francois Gravelot, through whom he was influenced by the style of the famous French Rococo painter Antoine Watteau. One of Gainsborough’s celebrated early works is his portrait of Mr. and Mrs Andrews (c. 1748-1750, National Gallery, London), featuring a wealthy Suffolk landowner and his wife against the background of their estate. Nicaragua 1978. Mr. and Mrs. Andrews. His other accomplished portraits of this period include that of John Plampin (1753, National Gallery, London), who is shown reclining on a mound with a landscape in the background a pose derived from Watteau’s portraits. In 1759 Gainsborough moved to Bath, the fashionable spa town where there were greater opportunities for earning a living as a portrait painter. Around the same time he also viewed portraits by Anthony van Dyck at Wilton House in Wiltshire, which were to have a major influence on his work.
